Sherbet Pips Giveaway!

*giveaway is now closed*

Well first of all I'd like to give a huge congratulations to all of you who did so amazingly well on this fabric diet! I think that you guys are fabulous for sustaining so often and so well. You put me to shame. I think that I needed the diet more than any of you. LOL. But that's okay. I think whether we bought fabric or did not, we all learned something about our purchasing habits. Some things can be improved and some are just fine.

So, I want to do a little celebration. From the fabulous Fat Quarter Shop we have not one but TWO jelly rolls of Sherbet Pips! Thank you Fat Quarter Shop! So that means that we will potentially have two winners. Why potentially? Well, one person could win both. And some of you will have a lot of opportunities. ;)

So what do you need to do? Well, everyone who wants to can enter...just leave me a comment about what you would love to see in a future giveaway.

Now comes the fun for those of you who played along with the fabric diet. If you were playing along and checked in with us on a regular basis then you get one bonus entry. Simply leave a comment saying "bonus entry #1". Then (and I promise I'm not trying to punish you guys by making you do work! lol), for every successful week you had in addition to playing, you get another bonus entry. So that means that some of you will have up to eight bonus entries and nine entries total. Simply label each entry as "bonus entry #_". So some of you definitely have a fair chance of winning more than once.

And maybe I'll be throwing in a few other giveaways in there as well. ;) You'll just have to wait and see. I want to give everyone time to check in, so we'll keep this open until Wednesday March 2nd. Then, it's you snooze, you lose!

Fabric is as great as a giveaway can get in my eyes! I am new to quilting, and setting oneself up properly is expensive in itself, then the most beautiful of fabrics seem so luxurious! I would love to participate in all these beautiful swaps I see, (like your doll quilt swap, oh that was so divine!) but until I learn to create such beauty, I am left to drool over blogs like yours hahaha! Thanks for inspiration Angela x

I didn't try fabric dieting. I knew I couldn't stick to it! :) Instead, I just really tried to make my purchases for things I KNEW I NEEDED! It has mostly worked :P Thanks for the awesome giveaway and since I didn't diet, I get one entry :(sarahbeth814@yahoo.com

I am like one of the other commenters...as long as it is fabric I don't really care what it is. I just love fabric yumminess. Patterns are fun too. oh and gadgets are fun...yeah I love quilting gadgets and those are not given away very often. LOVE GADGETS!!!!!

*lol* angela, you want us to keep busy and not give us a chance to poke any buttons yet...clever girl, you! :)do i have to feel greedy, that i want this jelly roll, although i have a fat quarter bundle from last year that i'm already working with??? but there are many more sherbet pips for me on my 'want' list...so i can't resist :)

Thanks for the chance to win some of those lovely pips. I'm pretty sure I'm destined to have to buy my own when they are eventually released though :)I'd love to see giveaways for more hard to find fabric goodies :)

Great giveaway because I've been wanting some of this line since I first saw it and am so glad it didn't come out in the middle of my fabric diet lol

As for what I'd like to see in future giveaways? Hmm well anything fabric related - especially if it's hard to find. In fact if it's hard to find pre-cuts of it like charm packs, jelly rolls, layer cakes are always good because you have a whole range of it to play with.

Well I just found your blog through the ORBC group. Man looks like I missed out on some fun. I love this Sherbet Pips line and I can't wait for the yardage to come out. I already have stuff planned in my head. Of course winning some now would mean less waiting. Thanks for the chance.

Well, I was not a participant in the fabric diet, because I'm actually trying to GROW my stash! I'd love someday to be able to pull fabrics from my stash for a quilt, or even have enough scraps to make a scrappy quilt. I'd love to see pre-cuts or fat quarters in a giveaway...since they are such a great way to get a variety of fabrics to play with.

Well, I wasn't on your diet because I have a baby on the way, with the Dan Stiles fabric to purchase that I've been waiting for since November. However, I think it's a great idea - I'll start after I order Sunkissed (maybe). Love your blog. :)
